The post FREE! CPD Webinar – Visual Literacy in Action: How Widgit & Mighty Writer Work Together to Transform Early Language and Writing appeared first on Louise Dawson Inclusion Training.

When children can see language, they can use language – and that leads to confident, successful writing.

Join Louise as she hosts Lisa from Widgit and Emma from Mighty Writer for this powerful introductory session, where we’ll show how Widgit symbols and Mighty Writer’s sentence‑building approach work together to strengthen:

• Vocabulary and oral rehearsal
• Sentence structure and accuracy
• Transcription foundations in Reception & KS1
• Confidence for SEND, EAL and reluctant writers
• Overall independence and writing success

This practical, classroom‑focused webinar walks you through the full visual‑to‑verbal learning journey:

Picture → Symbols → Oral Sentence → Sentence Build → Writing

This webinar is intended for all educators that teach literacy and students with special education needs and disability (SEND) or English as an Additional Language (EAL/ELL). Please share these details with your colleagues and LSAs and they can book easily via the Mighty Writer website.

Registered attendees will be sent a link to the recording of the session
